    It's funny how the few decide to make decisions for the many.
    That hasn't been going over too well in the world lately.

    They make it sound like it takes a special kind of vehicle to run on alcohol. Whats up with the 85/15 blend? Any car can run on 100% alcohol with nothing more than proper tuning.

    Elelctric(battery) powered cars are probably the biggest pieces of Earth Destruction that there is !!!

    A battery devastates so much 'earth' just to make one...its mind boggling !!!
    not to mention what happens with it after its kaput!!!

    there is a guy booting around the city up here in a Steam Powered 56 Chev pick up....pretty cool !!....looks darn near stock(y)

    First of all...who the hell is this "Euro Commission"?? And who gave them ANY authority to decide ANYTHING??
    Secondly, re: obama.....he has a VESTED INTEREST in battery operated vehicles!
    I am SO sick of some group telling everyone what will be. For example....the Wisconsin DNR is an originally self produced organization that was never voted on by the public or recommended by any sanctioned political party. If you know anything about the Wisconsin DNR....they now have more power with self written laws than the Governor or the Wisconsin Supreme Court. You can hardly do ANYTHING in this state without their approval. People build homes that are approved by the local zoning boards only to have the DNR come in and force the owners to tear them down for some silly law they wrote to protect the double nutted beaver or some such stupid thing. They seem to trump even the Supreme Court in cases where the home owners have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars fighting these self proclaimed nature cops.
    My theory is simple. If these organizations can form through back door, underhanded methods and do things their way then I can do things my way. No need to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars through a snail's pace system only to lose through some law that was sneaked into the books. I can use my own organization and solve the problem quickly.
    Just try taking my car away from me.

    just remember...when the police have electric cars and you have a gas car....you CAN outrun the radio!!

    i hate the type of enviromentalists with a passion!
    I like to recycle,...i hate wasting things...if something can be used again or re-purposed...do it!
    i don't like it when people litter. who likes garbage all over the ground?
    i really dont like it when people dump crap into my rivers and streams. it winds up in the ocean.
    buy i really hate it when people get on the high horse and try to stop progress in the name of "mother earth". for example,
    there is a whole group of lawyers out there with one puprose...to stop the building of coal power plants.

    i mean...really people...get a hobby! i'll drive what i like. anyone who thinks this is conspiracy theory should look at the UN's "man in the Biosphere" and it will be creepily appearant whats going on here!

    no tedy...they are trying to stop those too!

    there are groups trying to stop windmills everywhere they are built (they make noise and kill birds) and the enviro groups have even stopped a proposed solar plant in...i think..new mexico because it disrupts some lizard! hydro dams are being stopped because of trout! talk about tying someones hands. i say we make all these aholes run on treadmills to make power. ....problem solved!

    people try to stop things without bringing a viable solution to the table!

    Your not the only one. They are getting in the way of anything that makes sense. I'm an Eagle Scout, of course I am protective of the environment, it was tought to us as kids. But how the environmental wackos operate, they would like to see us back to the stone age.

    I would venture to say that there is a wacko in every flavor out there. There is a group against anything and everything that exists. Therefore, I feel a need to do something about it. I am starting a group against groups.:yup:
